Flat-bed tow truck smashes into seven vehicles in Jersey City: photos

A flat-bed tow truck belonging to a Jersey City towing company lost control Saturday night and crash into seven vehicles and a motorcycle, a witness at the scene reports.

The driver of the Truchan company flat-bed told cops that he hit a pot hole on Clendenny Avenue and that is what caused the crash, said Richard McCormack, a freelance photographer for The Jersey Journal. McCormack said no one was injured in the crash.

The back end of the flat-bed apparently fish-tailed and struck six cars and SUVs and also hit a motorcycle on Clendenny, near Mallory Avenue.
